Following tradition, Oheneba Adu-Brade II was seated in his palanquin as he was paraded through the streets, alongside jubilant community members, proudly displaying their rich cultural heritage.
Speaking at the Boamang Chief’s Palace, he expressed his deep gratitude to Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, Boamanghemaa Nana Akua Pokua, his royal family, and the people of Boamang for their support in selecting him as their chief.
He emphasized the importance of unity and development, promising to dedicate himself to the progress of Boamang.
“Boamang’s progress is my topmost priority,” Oheneba Adu-Brade II stressed, pledging to be a leader for all in the traditional area.
Boamanghemaa Nana Akua Pokua, in her remarks, echoed the chief’s call for unity, urging all residents to join forces for the betterment of Boamang.
